JFK Secret OPS: A Graphic Novel by Craig Frank

JFK - Secret Ops

JFK SECRET OPS is the untold American story. Everyone thinks he’s dead, they read it, they saw it, but in this gripping drama of America’s 35th president he’s alive and demands retribution to those who were involved in the conspiracy. Moral punishment has its price and JFK carries the burden alone to protect his country and family. Animation Expert Craig Frank invites all to be a part of this secret mission and make their pledge. Craig needs to work on this project full time and needs the financial support to produce this 120+ pages graphic novel in hardback. He is striving to get this out before the 50th anniversary of JFK’s incident in Dallas.

Following the lines of Chris Vector

Cris Vector Colombina - 2007

I first came across prolific Brazilian illustrator Cristiano Siqueira aka Chris Vector some years ago on deviantART. I was immediately impressed by his talent and unique style, and Chris’s work stood out in an arena already heaving with talent. Chris specialises in digital art, most particularly, vector art. Vector art like fractal art is one of those esoteric mediums that I admire greatly, whilst having no desire to try to master (cos it’s too hard). I loved Chris’s work particularly for its dynamism and visual impact, and the retro comic style that some of his pieces embody.

Sketchbook Drawings

As I am supposed to be taking it easy after surgery, and slobbing around the house while my hubby looks after me and the urchin, I have been mostly painting, sketching and working on web design stuff. Here are some sketchbook pieces that I particularly liked. The top image are some ideas for more lino cutting and stamp carving, second one was drawn whilst watching The Rescuers and Star Trek with Orla, and the last one, well…my chair in the living room is next to my bookcases and my books, need I say more.

Letter Art Prt. II

Letter E

I have been meaning to scan and post these for a while, and finally got around to it yesterday.  Some more letter art pieces to add to the series I have been working on (see Letter Art Prt. I). These are light relief from painting and heavy illustration.  Both illustrations were created using Faber Castell Pitt Artist Pens, and Sakura Pigment Liners. As soon as my show is done in June, I will be releasing them as prints. Here we have letters M and E. P and C will follow in the next couple of days.
